I recently was working with a subversion project that checked out code not only from the repository I was working with, but also from a separate repository on a different server. How can I configure my repository to do this? I'm using the subversion client version 1.3.2 on Linux, and I also have access to TortoiseSVN version 1.4.8 (bui...
Is there a way to exclude all svn externals when doing a recursive update? Is there a way to exclude only 1 of all of the svn externals when doing a recursive update? Basically I'd like to cut down the svn update time, and a couple of the SVN externals that I have will just about never get updated. ...
We are considering a move from SVN to Mercurial, and have encountered a stumbling block. We currently use svn:externals to automatically pull a common set of libraries into the working directory. I can't find support for anything like this in Mercurial. Is there a way to do this automatically with Mercurial, or do I need to fake it as ...
My situation: I have several components, which sometimes have changes to them, and are shared across a lot of different projects. Each project puts these in a subfolder called /depends. The depends holds a bunch of svn externals for all of our common components. svn:externals is causing me a lot of time and pain. Show log on the pr...
I'm using bzr to access a Subversion repository. Which is great, but the repository uses quite a few svn:externals properties to bring in code from related projects. Bzr-svn doesn't support svn:externals yet. Is there a good way to work around this limitation? ...
Is it possible to ignore external dependencies for a tag referenced in an svn:externals property? This may sound like a very strange question, but let me explain... I have a rather large collection of individual and "pluggable" code modules, each of which can be independently tested, compiled, and developed as a standalone project. So...
I migrated an SVN server today and ran into an issue. I have a repo that has an svn:externals property on a trunk subfolder. This folder has been branched a bunch of times and now this svn:externals reference needs updated on every single branch to refer to the new server. Is there an easy way to update all of these properties? I'm not...
i have setup my project in SVN to use an external library. When i want to push some modifications to the live server i do a diff between versions and copy only the changed files. My problem is that the diff does not check the external modifications also, it justs returns the project modifications. What is your strategy to deploy modifi...
I don't claim to know anything about svn, but I thought I understood how externals work. I'm making a new project and i want my lib folder to have an external to some other project (svn location). I've done this plenty of times before and never had an issue, am I just having a Friday moment? I created the following folders: /myproj ...
We're testing the waters with SVN, with Beanstalk as a host. Our setup looks something like this: Repository: Modules Module 1 Module 2 Module 3 Repository: Website 1 Custom website code svn:External reference to Module 1 svn:External reference to Module 2 Repository: Website 2 Custom website code svn:External reference to Modu...
We use svn:externals to specific revisions of a library, e.g. like xyzlib -r12345 https://asdf.asdf.local/xyzlib/trunk/ When you make a modification in your working copy to such a checked out external, it is possible to commit even though the external links to a specific revision and not the HEAD. When you run svn update after the c...

Does anybody know if the Visual Studio Team System/Explorer has a way of doing the equivalent of SVN's svn:external? I don't need it to reference a location outside of the Team Project, just locally in the project. Given the following example source code directory structure: \root \tags \ModuleA ...
Is it possible to point an SVN Externals directive at a CVS repository? ...
I'm trying to do a sparse checkout of a folder containing externals, but none of the externals are being checked out. This issue seems to indicate that this behavior may be by design, or at least that it isn't clear what the behavior should be. From my point of view, the obvious behavior is that externals are treated just as any other di...
Background: I'm using Visual-SVN V. 1.7.5 with VS2008. I'm fairly new to SVN. I have a Solution that uses source files that will be shared with other Solutions. I've put these files in a folder called "Shared", and added them to my Solution using "Add -> Existing Item... -> Add As Link" which works fine as far as VS2008 is concerne...
using svn 1.6.6 with tortoisesvn 1.6.6 what I am doing: 1) Apply external properties to a folder in the trunk (both single file and folder external, externals are binary files) 2) Create a branch from the trunk and update the entire project 3) Modify a file on the branch and commit the changes, then update the entire project. 4) Mer...
In our company, we are working on a product composed of different C/C++ modules. Ideally, each tier and module should be developed by separately by different teams and tested independently. Currently, we have separate each module into it's own branch:\ The modules are: \hid \branches \tags \trunk \api \branches \tags \trun...
Is this possible with tortoiseSVN?: Always freeze svn:externals for tags the scenario is our trunk will always use the 'head' revision for externals, however when we create 'tags' we would like for them to have a revision set for externals to properly 'freeze' them at a specific point in time. Thanks! Update Thanks to everyone for y...
